AUTHOR: jrm@FreeBSD.org
AFFECTS: users of sysutils/devcpu-data*
The CPU microcode ports have been reorganized. The new ports are:
sysutils/cpu-microcode, sysutils/cpu-microcode-amd,
sysutils/cpu-microcode-intel, and cpu-microcode-rc.
To install all CPU microcode packages:
pkg install cpu-microcode
To install only packages for a specific CPU vendor:
pkg install cpu-microcode-amd
or
pkg install cpu-microcode-intel
To give users time to adjust to these changes, sysutils/devcpu-data will
remain in the tree until the end of 2023. The port has been converted to a
metaport and now provides the same functionality as sysutils/cpu-microcode.
Refer to the commit log in bc7829212d153aeff69b439d08e2e3001ef88ba3 for an
explanation as to why these changes were made.
